Abstract
Multiple types of executable agents operating within a domain. The domain includes mutable shared state and immutable shared state, with agents internal to the domain only operating on the shared state. Writer agents are defined to be agents that have read access and write access to mutable shared state and read access only to immutable shared state. General reader agents have read access to both mutable shared state and immutable shared state and have no write access. Immutable reader agents have read access to only immutable shared state and have no write access. By appropriate scheduling of the different types of agents, data races may be reduced or eliminated.
